    THE PROBST TRIAiI.
'he Evidence Closed
Conclusion of Yesterday's Proceedings
The Court reassembled at three o'clock.
Mrs. Dolan was cross-examined—Left Mr.
Deering's house to go to Jersey on the fourth
of April, he left me on the boat for Burling
ton; on the Saturday my daughter left she
was dressed in a cloak, spotted dress, part
silk, and black velvet bonnet; the reason I
thought the dirty shirt was Probst's was be
cause he took one of Mr. Deering's shirts
and left that in its place; he had Mr. Deer
ing's shirt on when I first saw him after his
arrest. [The work clothes ofProbst were here
shown witness, and she identified them as
having seen him wearing them about Mr.
Deering's place; these clothes - were found
on the premises after the murders; witness
identified,;also, as belonging to her daughter,
some of the jewelry which was found in his
carpet bag; she likewise identified both
tee pistols as having belonged to Mr.
Deering.]_
Willie Deering sworn—l am ten years old;
lived with my father down the neck; [sketch
or plan shown;] lived 44, this one [pointing];
left home Easter Monday and went to my
grandfather's, over the Schuylkill; I left
my father and mother at home when I left,
and the children; John, Thomas, Annie and
Emily, and Cornelius Carey; that man over
in the dock lived there; my father had a
watch; [watch shown] that is it; he wore it
in his vest pocket; fastened to it was a gold
chain, a thin one; it was not as thick as Miss
Dolan's chain; [axe shown;] I know this
axer it is mine; I used it for chopping kind
ling wood; had dogs—three; I have not
been down home since this happened; father
had ,, pistols—a big revolver, [pistol identi
fied; small pistol also shown and identified];
the big pistol he kept is under the bed; [the
prisoner's clothes were shown the witness
andwere all identified by him as Probat's;]
the prisoner slept in the room right before
you going up stairs toward the stables. t
Cross-examined—My father had not this
chain to which the watch is now attached
when I was taken to my grandfather's in
West Philadelphia; know the large pistol
by the letters on the butt, a "P" and "F,"
also by the ramrod, which comes undone;
[the boy showed how it came undone.]
The testimony for the commonwealth here
elc sed.
Mr. Wolbert, for the prisoner, said they
had no testimony to offer for the defence,
and so far as the prisoner's case was con
cerned it also closed.
Mr. Mann said that Mr. Dwight would
open for the commonwealth.
Mr. Wolbert, on behalf of himself and Mr.
O'Neill, his colleague, asked the Court, that
after Mr. Dwight concluded, the Court would
adjourn until morning, as neither nor his
col: eague were prepared to go on this after
noon. If the Court would grant the request
he pledged himself the speeches of counsel
for the prisoner should not occupy longer
than an hour and a half.
Judge Allison granted the application.
T. B. Dwight. Esq., then summed up the
commonwealth, contending that from a con
sideration of the evidence, it was clear that
the prisoner had murdered not only Corne
lius Carey, to which he had confessed, but
Christopher Deering, his wife and family,
and Miss Dolan, and that the murders were
committed deliberately and after careful
premeditation. Mr. Dwight's theory of the
order in which the victims were despatched
was that the prisoner first murdered Mrs.
Deering, having enticed her to the barn un
der some pretext; that he then disposed of
the children, one by one, in the same man
ner, and finally, the family at the house be
ing out of the way, be proceeded `lo the vi
cinity of the haystack where Cornelius Ca
rey was at work, where, with the small axe,
which the prisoner doubtless carried with
him concealed behind his back, he killed
Carey and hid his body under the hay rick.
Mr. Dwight argued that then the prisoner
waited, how long it is impossible to tell,
concealed about the barn, until the return
of Mr. Deering with Miss Dolan; that Miss
Dolan got out of the carriage and went into
the house and up stairs, where she threw off
her bonnet, shawl, and furs, and while so in
the house it was that Probst, from his place
of hiding inside the door of the barn, killed
Mr. Deering; that Misrl Dolan, thinking it
strange to see no one in the house, came
down into the yard and to the barn and there
fell, the last victim of the murderer.
Mr. Dwight having concluded, the Court
adjourned until this morning.
Singular Story About the Burden Nur
from the Newburyport (Hess.) Herald, April 26th.]
Recently, Charles H. Golden, as he calls
himself, a young man not exceeding thirty
years of age, committed larceny in Glouces
ter, Mass., and fled that place. The party
who suffered from his depredations obtained
the necessary legal papers in Gloucester,
and pursued him. He came to this city,
and whlle he was anxiously looking about
the police station to find some officer to serve
bis papers, the guilty party, Gordon, ap
peared in sight. Determined not lose his
game, though not an officer, he madethe
arrest himself, conducted Golden to the
lock-up, put him into a cell, fastens the
door, • and then hunted up an officerto
to receive the key. It was afterwards dis
covered that Golden was guilty of greater
crimes here, having committed burglary
and being also:guilty of larceny in stripping
the clothes lines of parties unknown. He
was therefore retained here and committed
to jail where be now is.
When in jail he volunteered to Marshal
Westcott to make confession of his crime,
saying that he had carried the burden on
his soul long • enough; and it was nothing
more or less than his knowledge of and con
nection with the Burdell murder in the city
of NEW 'York in 1857. His story is that he
was then living in New York, a
dealer in jewelry, and boarding
with Frederick. j. Rody, No. 64 James
street. He became acquainted with Mrs.
Cunningham, and from time to time made
her presents; often visited the house of Dr.
Burdell, where he was intimate with Mrs.
Cunningham and her two daughters, fre
quently stopping there day and night;
knew who appeared es the particu
lar friend of --,
thoG , elder daughter, while he
(Golden)was the lover of the younger, A-a
gusts.
He overheard Mrs. Cunningham and
talking of a chi ld, she saying that it
Dr. Burden was out of the way she could
obtain the property. She said that she could
not trust Dr. Eckel, who was - stopping
there, with the job, but Charley (meaning
himself) was a good , hand and in her confi
dence. A short time after this conversation
on the night of the murder—at which time
he was engaged to attend the theatre with
Miss Augusta—Mrs. Cunningham held a
conversation with him, saying that tLe pro
perty was soon to be hers , inquiring if he
had the heart of an ox, and if he would have
scruples to commit crime if it would bring
him $25,000. "Yon know, Charley,' shr
continhed, "that Dr. Burl:ell is worth one
hundred, thousand dollars, and you and
.Augusta shall have twenty thousand dollars
of it." She handed him a dirk, and asked
him if he would do anything for Augusta's
Make. Then, his story is, that he threw the
knife upon the table, and soon after left for
the theatre, Mrs. C. that "Char
ley had caved."
On their retain at half-past 1, he noticed
the smoky intthe street, met Mrs.
Cunningham with a napkin stained with
'blood saw in: his room, the bosom of
kis shirt stained with blood, as be said from
the noie,hleed, and went to bed feeling that
the murder had been committed.
Early the next morning, when there were
outcries of murder.-Mrs..Cunningham.ad
vised him to r leave as soon as possible; to
get out of New York, anti if pmssiblO 'go to
England. She gave him $9OO to pay his
expenses, insisting that he should not visit
the house again, saying that the property
was hers, but asking his return when the
excitement was past. He stopped that night
at the Astor House; then at 64 James street,
and sailed for New Orleans in the ship Mem
phis, Captain Davis, as a sailor. _
This is the story as he gives it. It is cor
rect in these particulars—that some person
answering to the names he gives, did stop
in the places stated, at the time named, and
that such a person did sail in the ship and
with the captain stated, from New York to
New Orleans. It would appear. singular if
his story was without foundation, that it
should be correct in all these particulars.
But it will be ° remembered that in the
house, after the murder, was found a shirt
covered with blood, marked "Charles
Ketcheam," and that during the investiga
tion a 19tter was sent from Cincinnati,
signed "Bold Writer," the author of which
affirmed the guilt of himself and the inno
cence of murder of the persons arrested. By
those who have examined into the matter,
it is believed that the shirt belongs to this
person, now calling himself Golden, and
that betwepn the time of the murder and
some three weeks after, when the ship
Memphis . sailed, he was in Cincinnati, and
did write the letter named, and is himself
the murderer of Dr. Burdell.
Golden is a man of prepossessing appear
ance, superior education, and specially
gifted in the use of the pencil. He says he
was employed as an artist on one of the pic
torials during the war. Whether any further
aitention will be given to this matter we do
not know. He will probably be sentenced
to the State Prison at the coming terta of
the Court, for crimes that he is known to
have committed."
Explosive 'Qualities of Nitro-Glycerine
The Boston Advertiser publishes the fol
lowing :
MAiQuETTE, Mich., Aug. 29, 1865.—1 n a
recent letter you incosed me a slip which
gave some account of the explosive prop
erties of nitro-glycerine. I had observed
substantially the same statement last win
ter, and caused some to be prepared for ex
periment in blasting. The first I knew I
bad a tremendous explosion in my office.
There was not enough of it to take the roof
off, but the contents of the bottle were
scattered over every square foot of wall and
1 Made a trial with similar success, ex
cept that the explosion took place out of
doors. The practical difficulty in the use
of the compound seem to be, that it can
only be prepared at a very low temperature,
and instantly and violently decomposes
with any increase of temperature.
Yours, &.c., S. P. ELY.
THE DEPARTMENT Or AGRICULTURE.—
The report of the Department of Agriculture
for the month of lthirch, has just been pub
lished. Mr. Newton, the commissioner,
says the United States Consul at Hamburg
has notified the Secretary of State of his re
fusal to allow the importation of a lot of
hides to this country, which he had reason
to believe came from places where the rin
derpest prevails. The importation of
queensware or crockery may bring it here,
by the infection of the straw used in pack
ing it in the crates. In many ways, there
fore, the liability of its introduction here is
great, and this department has brought the
matter to the consideration of Congress, in
order that an act may be passed providing
for a cordon around every case that might
arrive, through importation, into the United
States. He says, further, he is clearly of
the opinion that there is more danger of the
trichine disease now than there has been in
any previous year. The statement in rela
tion to the present condition of the crops
are, as usual, this time of the year, very
conflicting; but it is believed that whilst the
severe cold has killed the tops of the wheat
unprotected generally by snow, the roots
have not been killed.
